andy1252 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Carrying on from my previous visit to Galveston, going to head up to Houston and George Bush Intercontinental. Just a short hop, but took me several attempts due to OOMs (so the weather may not be consistent). Here's the area again - Starting just past Galveston quite a built-up area, by the looks of things but not without its green spaces (at least according to ORBX) Downtown coming up Some of those unconvincing Vector features below Heading in to George Bush now Had a bit of a rest up for a few hours, then thought I'd take something a bit more comfortable for the next leg. But by now I'm getting a bit fed up with the OOMs and gave up. I was going to fly to Chicago, and may yet try that after a bit of fiddling around.

mikewies Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Nice series....flying on the Houston area was helped by openLC NA. The default FSX scenery showed its age. Houston has expanded dramatically in the past 10 years. OpenLC NA reflects the that growth and shows the correct size and elements of the Houston metro area.

Stillwater Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 You were too early for the Super Bowl, but maybe you even return with some Cheerleaders on board? PS: Surprising to read your OOM issues: The plane looks quite simple, and your rig should be better than mine. Plus, I have a heavy add-on for KIAH active.

Plus, I have a heavy add-on for KIAH active. The DH is certainly quite basic, the Falcon might be a bit more intensive. I'm guessing the density of the autogen around this area is what's doing it. I am maxed out on all the scenery sliders and mesh settings, plus I'm running 4k display which I assume also adds to the overhead in these circumstances. I'm slowly getting around to actually measuring and testing when these happen, but usually I'm having too much fun to bother! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VH-KDK Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 A great shame about the OOMs but some wonderful shots here. Two beautiful planes, about as far apart as you can get! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sawyer Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 I see as you indicated above Andy but I was surprised to see OOM's in this area, as I thought it was OOM city near Seattle. I wonder if the Starship Enterprise's computers could run FSX/P3D without an OOM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
